"Did You Find Everything You Were Looking For Today?"

I love being asked that question.

Did I?
  • Did I look for the good, and not just the bad in people today?
  • Did I pray and fervently thank GOD for all that he has, is, and will do for my ohana, friends, and I, yesterday, today, and tomorrow?
  • Did I look for an opportunity and privilege to be kind to everyone I met today?
  • Did I take the time to really get to know at least one person a little better today?
  • Did I take the time to earnestly listen to a sister or brother in need of someone to make their world a little less lonely to live in today?
  • Did I ask GOD to help me make peace within myself in life's journey today?
  • Did I pass up a chance to tell somebody how special they are?
  • Did I take a moment during an all too brief minute's rest in the middle of practice, to not only take a swig of water from my plastic bottle, and wipe away the stinging sweat from my eyes, but to look up at the sky in utter awe and amazement that here I am sitting in a bobbing canoe, floating on the Pacific Ocean, under a balmy baby blue canopy, in a place GOD made and called Hawai'i! Whoa.

My heart smiles when I can answer "Yes" to any one of these questions, before the cashier bids me farewell, and hands me my white plastic bags full of life's stuffs.

I know that anything is possible through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

We are HIS living proof.

Have A Great Weekend!

"Long Distance Info Packet"


If you weren't able to make this past Saturday's 2007 Long Distance Informational Meeting, click above for the material which was passed out.

A large contingent of inactive paddlers, family, friends, and wellwishers are now forming to cheer on our mighty wahine and kane paddlers as they start and finish each of the nine long distance races we will be competing in this year.

Cheering Squad, let's all wear our signature club colors (red and/or yellow), so that our crews can spot the hundreds of us on the beach from afar, and as our crews make their final charge for the finish line. I'm getting giddy with excitement already!

The first long distance race is only two Sundays away...

Where did July go?

Have A Great Week!
